Chapter 60: Salt Production, The Encyclopedia of Minerals

When Ah Yi returned to Xia Qi's residence with the pottery pot, Xia Qi had already smashed the few salt crystals. Looking at the broken pieces on the floor, he reached out and wiped the non-existent sweat on his head.

I was thinking that when I collect salt in the future, I have to ask Aries to make a few large stone mortars first, otherwise it will definitely cause a lot of waste when the salt crystals are processed.

"Chief, here." Ah Yi handed over the pottery pot.

Because she was running all the way here, Ah Yi was out of breath, and her originally fair and tender cheeks turned pink. Xia Qi couldn't help but scratch the bridge of her nose and said:

"Then please ask Ayi to find some clean snow outside to fill the pot, okay?"

"Okay." Ah Yi nodded and left the residence again.

This little girl has a very good advantage, that is, she will not take the initiative to ask, unless she takes the initiative to tell her, otherwise no matter how curious she is, she will just bury it in her heart.

Although it no longer snowed during this period, except for a few roads in the tribe, there was snow everywhere. Not long after Ayi went out, he came back with a pot full of snow.

"Thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to me."

Xia Qi took the pottery pot from Ah Yi's hand and praised her. As soon as he put the pottery pot on top of the earth dragon, Anu, who had been out before, jumped in from outside in a hurry.

"Patriarch, I'm back!" At this time, Anu also came back from outside.

Xia Qi smiled at her and said, "Have the deer and the others eaten?"

"They all ate. As long as I supervise them, they will all be obedient." Anu nodded his head obediently.

"Yes, you did a great job." Xia Qi praised her gently.

He always praised these two little girls without hesitation.

"Hehe." Anu giggled sheepishly, then glanced around and saw the pottery pot placed on top of the earth dragon.

"Patriarch, are you going to cook something secretly?" After saying that, Anu couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva.

There was no way, the food cooked by the guys in the kitchen was really suitable for Xia Qi's appetite. He didn't eat much of his portion of food, so it was all cheap for this little girl.

In addition, Xia Qi often opened a small stove for himself, and the food he cooked was divided between the two little girls. Therefore, when Anu saw the clay pot on Dilong, he immediately thought that he was going to open a small stove again.

.

In fact, Xia Qi always kept a pottery pot in his residence, but one time the two sisters accidentally broke it when they were cleaning it. When the two little girls came to Xia Qi with the broken pottery pot in tears,

What can he do, of course, is to choose to forgive them.

Besides, there's no need for him to get angry with two children over a pot, right?

Xia Qi couldn't help but have a few black lines on his forehead after hearing this, and said angrily: "Can you speak? I am the leader of a tribe, and the entire tribe belongs to me. How can this be considered secret?"

"hey-hey."

Anu didn't refute Xia Qi's words, he just laughed a few times and sat down next to Ayi.

In the time it took to speak, the snow in the pottery pot turned into liquid, and Xia Qi then poured all the salt crystals and salt soil into small particles into the pottery pot.

Xia Qi held a wooden stick in his hand and began to stir. As the salt crystals and salt soil melted, the originally transparent water instantly turned into an earthy color.

Soon, the water in the pot boiled and a lot of steam began to come out. Fortunately, Xia Qi's residence was big enough, otherwise the whole house would have turned white.

Anu couldn't help but asked curiously: "Clan leader, didn't you forget to add ingredients to it?

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

"

"Are you a foodie, are you really making something for me to eat? Just wait and see." Xia Qi kept stirring.

"Oh." Upon hearing that Xia Qi was not making food, Anu immediately lost interest and sat there with his face propped up on his little hands, looking uninterested.

Ah Yi, on the other hand, kept observing Xia Qi with his two big watery eyes, switching back and forth between the pot and Xia Qi's face.

Xia Qi noticed her little move and said to Ah Yi: "Come and help me, yes, that's it, don't stop, you know?"

Ah Yi took over Xia Qi's job, and he was able to stretch his arms that were becoming a little sore.

Ah Yi's expression was very serious. It didn't look like he was stirring salt water, but more like he was brewing a magic potion.

Xia Qi laughed in his heart and thought to himself: Could this little girl be a witch? Yes, a cute little witch.

Ayi was still a child after all, and he soon felt tired. After taking a look at Anu, who was about to fall asleep, Xia Qi got up and took over the work again.

As time goes by, the water in the pot becomes less and less, and the water vapor that emerges also decreases. Finally, only a thin layer of salt crust remains on the wall of the pot.

Seeing this, Xia Qi picked up two pieces of animal skin and covered the two "ears" of the pottery pot. He then grabbed the animal skin and took the pot off the earth dragon.

The salt crust is so thin that when the pot is lightly shaken, it breaks into fine pieces and slides off the bottom of the pot.

When the pottery pot cooled down, Xia Qi used tools to collect the salt powder in the pottery pot into a bamboo bowl.

These salts have a slight yellow color because there are a lot of impurities in them. There is no way, Xia Qi doesn't have the tools to filter them.

It seems it’s time to highlight the technology tree of Azabu, Xia Qixin said.

Then Xia Qi dipped his fingers into the bowl with a little salt and put it in. He felt the salt melt in his mouth, and a salty taste suddenly burst out, and this time there was not too much odor.

Looking at Xia Qi who looked obsessed, Anu concluded that the clan leader must be lying to him. He was obviously enjoying himself, but he still said it was not delicious?

Then, when Xia Qi wasn't paying attention, she put her fingers into the wooden bowl, dipped it in a lot of salt, and then put it into her mouth.

"etc!"

Seeing this, Xia Qi hurriedly stopped him, but it was too late. He could only watch as Anu put his finger in his mouth.

"Bah, bah, bah, what is this? It tastes terrible."

When a lethal amount of salt entered his mouth, Anu's face instantly turned green, and he instantly turned into a peashooter and kept vomiting.

Anu vomited for a long time, feeling the peculiar smell in her mouth. She said to Xia Qi with a bitter face: "Patriarch, what is this, it tastes so bad..."

"Haha, little idiot, I told you a long time ago that this is not edible." Xia Qi looked at Anu's miserable face and smiled shamelessly.

"Well... Patriarch, you are really annoying."

Xia Qi smiled, picked up the water storage container placed on top of the earth dragon, poured a glass of water and handed it to Anu.

"Now, rinse it with water, the smell will disappear soon."

Anu took the preparation, took a sip of water, rinsed it in his mouth a few times, and then swallowed it into his stomach.

It is worth mentioning that the water in the water storage container is still warm.

The coals under the earth dragon are not extinguished, and the stone slabs covering it are scorching hot. You can put water storage objects on it to heat the water, or you can put slices of meat on it and grill it. You can eat it while grilling, and you can eat it with Blue Star.

The stone slab barbecue above has a different approach but the same effect.

[The invasion war ends]

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

[The results are being judged...]

[Judgment results: The invading player "Xia Qi" suffered zero losses in this battle, and the defending player "Bo Gang" suffered zero losses in this battle.]

[According to the judgment, you did not win this invasion battle and there is no punishment.]

emmm......

Well, Xia Qi also knows that things like the last time player Miles did not happen every time. The lost civilization points have not been replenished. He only hopes that the White Wolf and the others can gain something this time, so as not to let them down.

His losses were too serious.

Xia Qi still doesn't know that after every player dies, the world he is in will instantly turn into nothingness.

【Should we call back the warriors? 】

"Yes...wait."

Xia Qi subconsciously wanted to choose yes, but suddenly thought, after he summoned Bai Lang and the others back, would they appear where they disappeared before, or where he was?

If it appeared where you are, wouldn't it burst your residence all at once?

When he thought of this, Xia Qi immediately put the salt on the small table, walked out of the residence, found an open space, and then chose to summon the soldiers to return.

There was a ripple in the space in front of him, but it quickly disappeared, and Bai Lang and his party soon appeared in front of him.

Although the system had previously informed him that there was no loss of numbers, Xia Qi still subconsciously confirmed that the group was correct before checking their harvest this time.

"Did you run into the Philippine prairie?"

Looking at the piled up prey, Xia Qi muttered subconsciously.

Zebras, antelopes...and that huge male lion are all specialties of the Philippine prairie.

But it is a pity that there are many prey, but no living creatures.

But think about it, it seems that there are no animals that cannot be domesticated on the African savannah.

Hey, that's...

Just when Xia Qi was feeling regretful that he had lost money in this business, a small pile of ore next to the prey caught his attention, and he picked up a piece and observed it carefully.

I saw that there were many irregular granular aggregates on this rock. The color of these aggregates was mostly bright dark brown, and a few were yellow and black.

"This... this seems to be tin ore!" Xia Qi looked at the stone in his hand and was so excited that he became incoherent.

A few days ago, Xia Qi had nothing to do and opened the silver treasure box he got from Miles, and found a silver-level skill book called "Ore Encyclopedia".

After thinking about it, Xia Qi finally used it for himself.

To be honest, my mind was suddenly filled. It felt really uncomfortable, but Xia Qi also knew a lot of detailed information about the ores.

As for why Xia Qi was so excited when he saw the tin ore, it is because if he wants to smelt bronze, tin ore is the top priority. Bronze itself is an alloy and needs to be mixed with pure copper (red copper) in proportion, so

Bronze can be smelted.

As it happens, the "Ore Encyclopedia" contains information about the smelting methods of alloys, but it only records the same level as Blue Star, and the various ores in the skill book are mostly the ones commonly seen on Blue Star.

Xia Qi estimated that if it were a bronze-level "Ore Encyclopedia", it would probably only record some information about the ores. As for the gold-level one, Xia Qi suspected that it would even contain ores and alloy smelting methods other than Blue Star.
